Kayla Chadwick missing one year March 27

Anniversaries are typically a happy occasion, but on Wednesday, March 27, it is a different story for the family and friends of missing teenager Kayla Chadwick.

It marks the one-year anniversary from the date that she went missing after an altercation with her boyfriend, Ivan Torralba.

Family and friends are joining together at City Park on Main Street in Fort Morgan at 6 p.m. on March 27 to have a balloon release and prayer for information leading to Chadwick.

Her mother, Robin Adams, is asking the community to come join, bring helium-filled balloons to release and show support as they walk around Fort Morgan to put up new flyers and keep Kayla's face in the public.

If anyone is interested in helping contact Robin Adams at (970) 370-8281.

Torralba is facing charges of interfering with an investigation into Chadwick's disappearance and is due for a disposition hearing in Logan County District Court on Wednesday, March 20.

Eighteen-year-old Kayla Chadwick was last seen in March 2012 after an argument with Torralba. She is described as 5 feet, 4 inches tall, with long red hair with black tips.

A grand jury convened to investigate her disappearance, later finding there was probable cause to believe Torralba had interfered with the investigation by moving or hiding a gun used as evidence.

The grand jury indicted Torralba, and he was arrested Nov. 8, 2012.

The investigation into Chadwick's disappearance is ongoing.
